"They said we were going to count the heartbeats. And one, two, three, there they were!" Lindsay said.

While the couple was excited about their growing family, reality quickly set it.Lindsay had to quit her job in order to offset the cost of daycare, which meant the couple would be relying solely on Kevin's military salary.

"It was the initial reaction, the shock that you're having triplets," Kevin said. "Then you think, 'How can I afford this?'"

They looked to the government for assistance or aid, but because Kevin's pay was just over the threshold for maximum income requirements, the family didn't qualify for help.

"There's just not enough to provide for three babies out of the blue when you lost an income," Lindsay said. "It's just so expensive.

The couple was spending about $15 a day just on diapers for the triplets. That's more than $400 a month.

So when they discovered the ACCESS Diaper Bank in Metairie, it was an answer to their prayers.

"When we first came in they gave us diapers, wipes and sometimes if they had it shampoo and lotion, and now they're helping us with Pull-Ups," Lindsay said.

The ACCESS Diaper Bank is the only national diaper bank affiliate in the New Orleans area. It gives out about 10,000 diapers per month to families in need, along any other necessities to help fill in the gaps.

"Anything they need we have in stock, we can supply," Michelle Black said. "We kind of call it a pantry visit. So if we have a (size) 2T and they have a toddler, we can give them that."

Since the clinic operates through donations, it's always looking for ways to replenish the stock.

The women from St. Vincent's Guild have made it their mission to help the clinic do just that, raising tens of thousands of dollars, and holding diaper drives each year.

"I think spiritual women in New Orleans have always stepped up to the plate when needed and I think that's what we do," Gaynell Pervel of St. Vincent's Guild said.
